1 ß-Lactam antibiotics Penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems monobactams ß-Lactam antibiotics nomenclature Antibiotics II. Fleming, 1928 discovery of the antibiotic action; Florey, Chain, Abraham et al Use of natural, biosynthetic penicillins 1940 s - 6-Amino-penicillanic acid, semisynthetic penicillins 1959 Wilson & Gisvold p.301 Instead of systematic names of the bicyclic ring systems trivial names are often used. 1 2 penam = 4-thia-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-7-one 3 ß-Lactam antibiotics nomenclature Penicillins Three characteristic fundamental structural requirements: Highly strained ß-lactam ring nonplanar, reactive -CONH- bond; Substituted 6 -amino side chain; Free 3-carboxyl group Natural penicillins Penicillium chrysogenum and P. notatum produce penicillins F, G, V, X etc. differing in their acyl side-chain. 4 Nonplanar ring system 5 6 1

2 Mode of action of ß-lactam antibiotics Natural penicillins Chemical properties Precursor acids directed biosynthesis). Acid-base properties Chemical reactions Chemical reactions Penicillin G Reactivity of the ß-lactam ring chemical or enzymatical opening loss of bioactivity Oxidation of the sulfur atoms, esterification of the C-3 carboxyl group results in the loss of activity

3 Penicillin G Penicillin V Natural penicillins The oldest penicillin, still used today. Problems: Sensitive to gastric acids (oral administration); Large number of already resistant bacteria; Rapid elimination. Use of sparingly soluble salts for depot i.m. injections slow release. Uses: sensitive staphylococcal & streptococcal pharyngitis, meningitis; gonorrhea, syphilis; prophylaxis of bacterial endocarditis. All penicillins: allergy! More resistant to inactivation by gastric acids Uses: similar to penicillin G The drug content is expressed in international units (IU) in the case of old penicillins. microbiological assay of impure substances. 1 mg of penicillin G potassium: 1598 IU 1 mg of penicillin G sodium: 1670 IU 1 mg of penicillin G procaine: 1011 IU International units were and still are used in the case of hormones, antibiotics obtained from natural sources D-Penicillamine D-Penicillamine Strong chelating agent, forms soluble complexes with many metal ions promotes the excretion of metals from the body by the kidney. Uses: Treatment of poisoning by heavy metal ions (lead, mercury or arsenic); To remove excess copper in the patients with Wilson's disease; Effective in many patients with severe rheumatoid arthritis; Preventing stone formation in the urinary tracts in cystinuria. Semisynthetic penicillins Drawbacks of natural or biosynthetic penicillins: narrow antibacterial spectrum ß-lactamase (penicillinase) sensitivity not stable under acidic conditions Isolation of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6- APA)

4 Conversion to 6-APA Chemical conversion to 6-APA Syntheses of semisynthetic penicillins Any mild chemical method can be used to acylate the 6- amino group 1) Acid chloride or Schotten-Bauman method ) Mixed anhydride method Semisynthetic penicillins Of the tens of thousands of penicillins synthesized to date only a few are used nowadays. Classification: Narrow or broad spectrum ß-Lactamase resistant or not Acid resistant or not Orally or parenterally active Semisynthetic penicillins Rough classification Gram +, ß-lactamase sensitive: penicillin G and V (natural) Gram + mainly, ß-lactamase resistant: methicillin, oxacillin, cloxacillin, dicloxacillin Gram + and Gram -, ß-lactamase sensitive: ampicillin, amoxicillin and alike Gram + and Gram -, Pseudomonas etc. (extended spectrum), ß-lactamase sensitive: carbenicillin, piperacillin, etc

5 Semisynthetic penicillins Synthesis of piperacillin Ureidopenicillins have extended Gram-negative antibacterial spectra incl. Pseudomonas sp. (azlocillin, mezlocillin, piperacillin) Comparison of ampicillin and amoxicillin Active esters of penicillins Active esters of penicillins Esters cleavable under physiological conditions by unspecific esterases are active esters prodrug concept. More complete gastrointestinal absorption. Active esters strongly bind to plasma slow release of the active free acid prolonged action. double ester group Janssen & Russel,

6 Active esters of penicillins Bacampicillin vs. other penicillins ß-Lactamase enzymes Intrinsic resistance, inducted resistance. Classes of ß-lactamases:serine-dependent enzyme classes (classes A, C, and D) and one metal (Zn) dependent (class B). Difference between Gram + and Gram - bacteria Wilson & Gisvold p ß-Lactamase enzymes The final steps of the synthesis of the cell wall: ß-Lactam antibiotics ß-Lactamase enzymes (penicillinases, cephalosporinases) Old strategy: development of new semisynthetic derivatives which are active against resistant strains because they are resistant toward ß-lactamase (methicillin, 6 -methoxy derivatives); they inhibit ß-lactamase (oxacillin) New strategy: development of ß-lactamase inhibitors. SF

7 ß-Lactamase inhibitors Combination of amoxycillin and clavulanic acid Inhibition of ß-lactamase by clavulanic acid Clavulanic acid, 1976, Str. clavuligerus (Merck) Week antibacterial activity, but strong inhibitor of ß- lactamases Synthetic inhibitors: penicillin-sulfone derivatives. Suicide inhibitor: covalently and irreversibly bonds to the enzyme at two sites the enzyme cannot regenerate, resistance.cdx ß-Lactam antibiotics + ß-lactamase enzyme inhibitor combinations ß-Lactam antibiotics + ß-lactamase enzyme inhibitor combinations Natural cephalosporins Amoxycillin + clavulanic acid (Augmentin, Aktil) Ticarcillin + clavulanic acid (Timentin) Discovery, detection of antibiotic action of Cephalosporium acremonium G. Brotzu, Italy, Sardinia, 1945; Isolation, structure elucidation of cephalosporin C E.P. Abraham & G.G.F. Newton, Oxford, 1953; First semisynthetic cephalosporin (cefalotin): 1964, Eli Lilly Ampicillin + sulbactam = sultamicillin (Unasyn) 40 Piperacillin + tazobactam (Zosyn, Tazocin)

8 Natural cephalosporin C fused dihydrothiazine ring 7-Amino-cephalosporanic acid 7-Amino-3-deacetoxy-cephalosporanic acid Cephems are more stable than the penicillins, still sensitive to stronger bases or acids. -Amino-adipyl side chain cannot be influenced during the fermentation 43 The 7-side chain cannot be removed enzymatically; The yield of fermentation is much lower than that of the penicillins; Chemical conversation of penicillins into cephems Semisynthetic cephalosporins 7ß-Acylamido side chain 7ß-Acylamido side chain 3 or 4 generation cephalosporins: methoxyimino-(2- aminothiazolyl) acetyl side chain 2-aminothiazol Modification at two sites to influence the antibacterial spectrum, the absorption, bioavailability, pharmacodynamics and metabolism. Roughly speaking: The 7-NH substituent has more influence on the antibacterial spectra; The 3-substituent has more influence on pharmacokinetics methoxyimino The syn (Z) configuration of the oxim moiety is important (bioactivities of the Z:E isomers ~ 10:1) 48 8

9 Synthesis i. Synthesis ii. Substitution at position 3 nucleophilic substitutions Generations of cephalosporins First generation: quickly metabolized (3 -OAc derivs.), sensitive to ß-lactamases. Sometimes used against sensitive strains. Second generation: Extended antibacterial spectrum (E. coli, Proteus, Klebsiella, Haemophilus ). 7- Aminobenzyl derivatives are quite sensitive to ß- lactamases, newer are more resistant (cefamandol, cefuroxime). Third generation: Methoxyimino-aminothiazolyl 7-side chain. Good lactamase stability, very good Gramnegativ activity, somewhat weaker Gram-positiv activity. Fourth generation: N + -(ammonium) type 3 - substituent. Very broad spectrum and good ß- lactamase stability G generation classes 1-4; ß-lactamase sensitivity +/-; Ad administration parenteral/per os 9
